another Important Tax rItI. decision.

The supreme court Of Minnesota, alter a
prolonged. rahearing of exhaustive argu-
ment in the Chauncey- Wass tax title case,
has reaffirlnsd its former decision.
This was. in effect, that property on which
all taxes have been paid may be
sold as delinquent il the county
auditor, by fraud or error. has omitted to
enter the payment upon his books, with
out other notice to the owner than publ
cation in newspaper. The effect OF the
decision, however, will not be as great as
" hen the case was first argued, as the judges
have decided that notice OF the time OF ex.
piration OF the right redemption is necessa-
~. The present status OF affairs, however,
win give rise to dissatisfaction and coniu-
sion as well as injustice in many cases, and
redress must be had OF the legislature in
the way OF en- amendment 10 the law now
in force.
When the case was first taken to the SUI
preme court it was argued only by the at
torneys especially interested in the case.
The court rendered decision in favor OF
the holder of the tax certificate, Judge
Berry alone dissenting. When the case was
reopened, the question being one in which
the entice state was interested. argument
was allowed by the counsel OF private indi-
viduals or corporations. Several Of the
leading lawyers OF the state sub
mitted briefs on the point involved. The
decision was rendered which supports the
former decision OF the court. The ques-
tion OF the jurisdiction OF the court was
brought up at the second hearing OF the
cars, and on thatpoint Judge Vanderburg
changed his opinion, joining with Judge
Berry.

strained my ears to listen for further
demonstrations from the attacking

here and there through the bushes,
scarcely making noise, but easily
distinguished in the silence OF the
night
" Now whispered Sam, take two
in each hand and I'll light them.
"Suiting the action to the word, he
contrived to light them in rapid sue
eession. Then we turned them into
the bushes, aud, heavens, what sight
was revealed as the candles flashed.
About fifty Misunderstanding sayages
and greaserswere STOPPING and creeping
along toward us. At the first flash
they stopped as if spell-bound. We
turned them SO the green and white
balls would strike them in their faces.
The candles were tremendous affairs,
and eight or ten ofthem popping away
apparently independent OF human aid
was enough to terrorize any one. Cur
assailants wavered moment, then
and with terrible yell, bounded
away toward high ground as If the
devil himself was in pursuit. We
could hear them scramble up the hill
side, mount their horses and gallop
away. Sam. afterward explained that
he had brought the candles along as a
side speculation, and he also explain.
ed that he had arranged system OF
strings among the bushes so that no
one could approach very close with
out meeting the obstruction and
alarming him. 1t is needless to state
that we reached safe ground in due
time, without further molestation.

Nan With a Fighting Record.

Gen William 7. Loring, who has been an
officer in the United States, Confederate
and Egyptian armies, and who for nearly
forty years was engaged in active warfare,
died at the st. Dennis hospital New York,
on the 30th. Gen. Loring was born in
North Carolina in 1917. At the age ofsix-
teen he entered the United States
army as second lieutenant and engaged
with much credit to himself in the
Seminole war. At the outbreak OF the
Mexican war he was captain in the First
mounted rifles, and for acts OF bravery
WAS successfully promoted, until at the
close OF that war he was chief in command
OF the regiment. He was breveted lieuten-
ant colonel for bravery at Con.
treras and Charusbusco, and colo
mel for conspicuous acts OF bravery
at Chepultepec, where he lost an
arm. When the war OF the rebellion broke
out Col. Loring, whose sympathies were
with the South, resigned and became brig
adler general in the Confederate army. He
served in West Virginia in 1862, was at
Vicksburg in 1863. and with Gen. Bragg at
Chattanooga and in the ensuing cam
paigns. At the close OF the civil war the
general, with several Confederate officers,
went to Egypt ana entered the ser
vice OF the khedive. The general
was made chief OF the khedive's staff, and
as such was known as Loring Ppsha. In
1878 he returned to this country with a
competency and invested largely in orange
groves and real estate in Florida. Three
years ago he published "a Confederate
Soldier in Egypt" book descriptive OF
lie in the khedive's army, and at the time
Of his death was writing an autobiography
The general was never married, and his
nearest relatives are the sons and daugh-
tiers OF his brothers and sisters.
